Whole milk can be consumed chilled as a beverage. In cooking and baking, it adds richness and moisture to recipes. It is often used in batters for pancakes and waffles, in custards and puddings, and as a base for creamy sauces and soups. When making mashed potatoes or other purees, whole milk contributes to a smoother texture. It can also be frothed for lattes and cappuccinos.
